Developer Resources for Pulaski County Housing Projects
Pulaski County continues to show pressure in rental, ownership, workforce, senior, and mixed-income housing. The Pulaski County Housing Coalition exists to support collaboration between local government, nonprofits, developers, and service providers working to strengthen housing stability and expand housing supply.
This category is designed as a practical local reference point for housing developers working in Pulaski County. It brings together key state, federal, regional, and local contacts that are commonly relevant during site review, funding exploration, project planning, and early coordination.
Quick Reference Links
Kentucky Housing Corporation, Developers
KHC is the primary statewide housing finance agency resource for many affordable housing developers in Kentucky. Its developer pages bring together multifamily and single-family production resources and outline the competitive funding structure used by the state.
KHC Funding Programs to Watch
KHC’s multifamily development section identifies the main state-administered funding tools developers should review, including Housing Credit, tax-exempt bonds, HOME, National Housing Trust Fund, Affordable Housing Trust Fund, SMAL, and predevelopment resources.
USDA Rural Development, Kentucky
USDA Rural Development remains an important resource for eligible rural housing projects. Its Kentucky office and Multifamily Housing pages are the best starting points for reviewing rural rental financing and related federal support.
Lake Cumberland Area Development District
LCADD serves Pulaski County as part of its 10-county region and provides planning, project development, financial packaging, grant application preparation, and community/economic development assistance. For local governments and some partnerships, LCADD can be especially useful during early scoping and funding strategy.
Local Planning and Entitlement Contacts
For projects inside the City of Somerset, Planning and Zoning is a practical first stop for zoning categories, ordinance review, subdivision regulations, zone change requests, and meeting coordination. Early conversations can save time before design work moves too far.
Data and Underwriting References
For market context, underwriting assumptions, and local need validation, these official data sources are useful places to start. They can help ground conversations around area income, benchmark rents, local population and household trends, and the county’s documented housing gap.
